************************************************************
I love featuring debut Authors. Not only is it their first novel but it introduces us to new writers with fresh plots and feels. Blake Austin has done just that! 9 Letters is a beautifully written story of a young married couple whose lives have unexpectedly been thrown into a tailspin. Unfortunately, life does not always play fair…. leaving this couple minus one. 9 Letters is a book about loss and coming to terms with the loss of your spouse. It’s about loneliness and what to do without that special person your heart longs for. It’s also trying to make sense of why. But 9 Letters is about making peace and letting go yet never forgetting.
Most of all 9 Letters is about a new beginning.
